Looking after your gut would pay high dividends in your health status.

1. Want Good
Health?
MIND THE GUT!

2. What resides in your gut?
• Grinding mechanism to pulverise your food
• Digestive enzymes to reduce the food to
useful particles
• A Microbiome that has a population >3x the
number of cells making up your body
• A second brain bigger than the one
in your head!

3. The Beginning & The
End!
• The cause of virtually ALL Disease and
• The SOLUTION to virtually ALL Disease
–LIE HERE

4. We Eat On The Run!
• We fail to chew our food properly, develop indigestion
and cut the acid off the stomach – WRONG THING TO
DO!
• Without the acid, we ferment rather than digest
• We don’t produce enough enzymes to break down food,
leading to:
o Malabsorption
o Food Allergies
o Raging INFLAMMATION

5. We have a whole colony
of Living organisms within
us (in the gut) called a
MICROBIOME

6. What is a Microbiome?
A microbiome is "the ecological community
of commensal, symbiotic, and pathogenic
microorganisms that literally share our body
space”.
Wikipedia

7. What is a Microbiome?
These bacteria, trillions of them, interact
with us closely every second of every
day. They support digestion, help us to
produce enzymes and vitamins and
stop our immune system being overrun
by crazy invaders, including cancer
cells!

8. The Enteric Nervous
System
Structurally and neurochemically, a
second brain, the enteric nervous
system (ENS), is remarkably brain-like,
both structurally and
functionally.

9. The Enteric Nervous
System
The ENS is a vast chemical warehouse
whereby every class of
neurotransmitter found within the
mainframe cerebral brain is
represented in the second brain.
Consider that 95% of the
body's serotonin is made
in the bowel!

10. SEROTONIN
This is your “feel good” hormone. Your
mental “game changer”. If you don’t
have enough, depression is absolutely
certain! And while they are treating you
for depression and maybe a whole
range of
“mental issues”, maybe all
they need to do is
“clean out your gut”!

11. Fire in the Belly
We have not even mentioned
INFLAMMATION yet! It generates a
raging fire in the gut that leads to all
sorts of disease profiles. Mostly
comes from food you should not
even be eating! Are you aware
that some people should not
even touch wheat? Yet grains
are supposed to be good for you!

12. Every disease that we know today
has a factor of Inflammation in it.
Protect yourself from disease!
LOOK AFTER YOUR GUT!
